And because I think geom(8) and awk(1) are awesome... geom disk list | awk ' BEGIN { FS=": *" } $1 == "Geom name" { device=$2 } $1 ~ "^ +Mediasize$" { match($2, /\([^)]+\)/) size=substr($2, RSTART+1, RLENGTH-2) } $1 ~ "^ +descr$" { if ($2 == "(null)") { descr="UNKNOWN" } else { descr=$2 gsub(/ /, "_", descr) } } /^$/ { if (device !~ /^cd[0-9]+/) { printf "%s %s %s\n", device, size, descr } } '
This likely won't handle every possible device type available. Something very similar is serving me well thus far.
